Junk for Christmas Challange 2008 Update 16/12/2008

Well we're within a week to that crazy day and I'm seeing a drastic increase in the amount of useful items in the trash. At first, I thought this was going to be difficult but I'm finding it ridiculously easy to locate great items. I've become picky there is so much to choose from. I know some of you are eager to see what great things I've been acquiring but you will have to wait until Santa’s done his thing.

To keep you looking back I've written and now performed this original piece. The sound quality is poor as I'm using my webcam with built in mic but lets face it, it would be poor quality anyway.

Junk for Christmas by Fig Fighter

So you too can sing along here are the lyrics, happy divin'.

Junk for Christmas

Once I met a wise man and
he had lots to say
He asked me to stop buying junk
In which I’d through away

He told me all about the waste
that comes from Christmas night
and all the other wasteful days
this really just ain’t right

He said, I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
Unlike you, I won’t have to pay
Oh, I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
You may get, what you thought you threw away

If Santa knew about this greed
You can bet he would be pist
He’d surely have to write our names
Upon his naughty list

He’d plan to give us a lump of coal
And then he would think twice
All we’d do is toss it out
And the world would pay the price

He said, I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
Unlike you, I won’t make the planet pay
Oh, I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
You’d be surprised what others throw away.

The wise man he came up to me
He shared with me his plan
But said it only started there
We should change the thoughts of man

We can’t continue down this road
It surely will not last
So put your wasteful ways behind
And leave them in the past.

I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
Unlike you, I won’t have to pay
Oh, I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
You may get, what you thought you threw away

I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
Unlike you, I won’t make the planet pay
Oh, I’ll be gifting junk for Christmas
You’d be surprised what others throw away.

You'd be surprised what you've thrown away.
